Fake news! Miss SA Ntando Kunene was not arrested at Heathrow with 2kgs of cocaine

Sun International has moved to rubbish a fake news report that Miss South Africa Ntando Kunene was arrested at London's Heathrow Airport after being bust carrying 2kgs of cocaine.

The fake news report was circulated on a fake news site and went viral on social media.

Sun International had to jump into action after the pageant was inundated with queries on the issue.

“Ntando has not been arrested and she has not been caught with any drugs in her possession. She is currently in South Africa and is not in London; in fact she has never been there,” Sun International's Claudia Henkel told YOU magazine.

The fake news site reported Ntando smuggled the cocaine inside two bags of coffee.

But guys, why would you believe a site that has all kinds of numbers in its URL?
